The Local First Coffee Hour events are a casual opportunity to connect with member businesses, hear about our upcoming programs, and learn how to build an economy that puts people first. We host them monthly with the support of Bloom Credit Union.
Host highlight: The Arts Marketplace is focused on filling our space with diverse artists and retailers that will enhance the retail presence in Downtown Grand Rapids, while doing our part to serve and promote diversity in our city. The Arts Marketplace supports new tenants with programming and unique ways to engage the community and create a retail experience that becomes a destination for anyone living in or traveling to Grand Rapids.
Safety expectations: We’d like to continue meeting monthly, in-person for our Coffee Hour events. To safely do so, event attendees are expected to adhere to current CDC recommendations. Masks are optional and we have developed a sticker system to identify attendees’ comfort levels. Changes to this protocol will be made when/if necessary.
We hope you’ll join us for good coffee and even better conversation.
